Chris Stanford

Chris Stanford is a product of the Deep South with a passion for playing loud guitars and sports. The first question Chris asks anyone is “Where are you from?” Raised on tales of generations past and a world he wasn’t yet able to explore, he developed an early affinity for storytelling.

His love of hearing others’ stories and telling his own shaped him more than anything as an artist and led to him carving out a successful career in portraiture and as a photojournalist. He has worked with musicians, artists, athletes and celebrities, while being featured in Vanity Fair, Rolling Stone, Time and Sports Illustrated.
